Hormone therapy, also known as hormone replacement therapy (HRT) or bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), involves using medications to supplement hormones that your body may not be adequately producing. It can provide immense relief from uncomfortable deficiency signs and help patients regain optimal hormonal balance. Replacing these essential hormones can greatly benefit both physical and mental health.
At Wellness Hormone Clinic, our compassionate hrt providers specialize in customized bioidentical hormone therapy plans to meet each patient's unique needs. We are dedicated hrt specialists focused on your long-term health, vitality and wellbeing.

Wellness Hormone Clinic specializes in replacing deficient hormones using completely natural, bioidentical compounds. These molecularly match hormones your body produces, providing seamless supplementation.
We take an integrative approach that addresses lifestyle factors alongside hormone balancing strategies. Excellent nutrition, stress management, proper sleep and regular exercise synergistically support hormone health.
The first step is meeting with a provider to discuss your symptoms, health history and goals. Any prior bloodwork will be reviewed. Additional necessary lab testing may be ordered to evaluate your hormonal status. Once complete, your provider analyzes the data to identify potential deficiencies.
Your provider then develops a personalized treatment plan designed specifically for your requirements. The appropriate bioidentical hormones are prescribed in physiological dosages to restore balance. The initial dosage may be adjusted over time based on follow-up testing and symptom tracking.
We utilize the most current medical research and our extensive experience to determine optimal therapeutic protocols. Each element - the type(s) of hormones used, dosage, timing, delivery method and duration - will be carefully considered.
Treatment plans may include:
Once therapy commences, follow-up appointments will be scheduled to evaluate your progress, make any necessary adjustments and ensure your continuous wellbeing. We also provide support services like nutrition advice and wellness coaching.

Certain lifestyle interventions can further support healthy hormonal balance during and after treatment:
Consuming nutritious minimally processed meals provides essential micronutrients that facilitate hormone production and balance inflammation. Emphasize green leafy vegetables, berries, nuts/seeds, high quality proteins and healthy fats. Stay well hydrated with purified water and herbal teas.
Chronic stress triggers overproduction of cortisol and inflammatory signals that disrupt endocrine pathways. Regular relaxing activities - meditation, yoga, nature immersion, journaling, art therapy and massage - activate the parasympathetic nervous system to counter excess stress hormones.
Hormones that control sleep/wake cycles and tissue repair primarily release during restorative nighttime sleep. Prioritize at least 7-9 hours per night by maintaining consistent bedtimes, limiting electronics use, and creating an optimal sleep environment.
Movement elevates heart rate, circulates lymph, burns glucose, builds muscle, corrects posture and releases pleasure-inducing endorphins. Aim for a combination of flexibility training, cardio and strength exercises 3-5 days per week. Start slow and increase intensity gradually.
Meaningful social bonds stimulate beneficial neurological chemicals and hormones. Spend time nourishing intimate relationships. Seek communities that provide a sense of belonging.
When combined with professional care from our compassionate providers, integrating elements like whole foods nourishment, stress reduction practices, stellar sleep habits, regular movement and social connection establishes the foundation for lifelong hormone health and wellbeing.
Hormone therapy can help reduce hot flashes and night sweats for many women going through menopause. Interestingly, some research indicates it may provide a slight protective effect against developing type 2 diabetes as well. The reduced risk seems directly related to the hormone estrogen contained in many hormone therapy regimens.
